We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Shopping · After the storm, comes the calm. The calm being a bubbly face mask and eye massager... 1. A set of square stemmed wineglasses so your CRISP white wine can hit just a little harder when you take your first sip. Just imagine swirling your twist-off wine and sipping like you're on a wine tour in Napa. If you feel like these seem straight out of Crate & Barrel (good eye!), reviewers say they look just the they love the price tag of these much more. Promising review: "We've had four of these glasses for over six months now and finally just added four more to our collection. These glasses are SO CHIC and are very similar to ones sold at Crate & Barrel but are MUCH more durable. Unlike the C&B glasses, you can cheers without feeling like the glasses will break. In fact, they've tipped over in the sink a few times and are still intact. They dry beautifully, sparkle after the dishwasher and we get so many compliments on them. I love them!" — Katie B Get a set of two from Amazon for $24.99. 2. A Deep Vitamin C Golden Capsule Face Moisturizer from K-Beauty powerhouse MediCube that'll give you a *pop* of hydration once you lightly break the capsule onto your skin. It's not only fun to use, but it also helps brighten skin thanks to its vitamin C and niacinamide formula. Reviewers with sensitive skin say it doesn't leave any hint of irritation, too! Amazon, Promising review: "This moisturizer is one of the nicest feeling moisturizers ever. The appearance of the vitamin C capsules inside the gel goop on TikTok enticed me to purchase it for myself. This moisturizer has a gel-like consistency and comes with a scooper, making it very easy to apply. You get a decent-sized jar of moisturizer for the price, and the moisturizer is pretty thick. Although it is sticky, I would say it absorbs into your skin pretty quickly. I t may leave a slight sticky residue behind, but I think overall, it is amazing for all skin types. After using this in the a.m. before sunscreen, I noticed my skin really glowed and felt smooth! I had gifted a jar to my 60-year-old mother, and she had told me how her skin felt like a baby's bum the next morning!" — tracey + kiwi Get it from Amazon for $19.90. 3. An espresso martini candle to immediately set the soothing vibes you're in desperate need of. With notes of caramel and chocolate plus a little bitterness from the coffee beans, you may just think you're in a dimly lit jazz bar sipping on one of these bad boys as you sink into your couch... Etsy / Candle Lume Candle Lume is a small biz based in Canada that makes aesthetic and fun-looking candles. Promising review: "I love it, and so will she. It's sweet, cute, and smells so good. It screams love!!" — Mickey Get it from Candle Lume on Etsy for $24.70. 4. Olay's Super Serum Body Wash formulated with niacinamide, BHA, collagen peptides, vitamin E, and shea butter (aka a powerful blend of skincare ingredients) so you can have more hydrated, smoother, and brighter skin. It'll quench your dry skin's thirst and lock in moisture for up to 24 hours. Reviewers say it smells amazing, too! Amazon Promising review:"I recently tried the Olay Super Serum Body Wash, and I am absolutely in love with it! The formula is incredibly hydrating, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after every use. It lathers beautifully and has a lovely, light fragrance that isn't overpowering. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looked more radiant and felt deeply moisturized. The addition of serums in the body wash is a game-changer. My skin feels nourished, and I no longer need to apply lotion right after showering. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a luxurious, skin-loving body wash!" — Darina Get it from Amazon for $12.99. 5. A set of 14K gold-plated clover earrings with faux diamond detailing that's similar to Van Cleef but costs a FRACTION of the price (I can not stress fraction enough). The look is timeless and elegant, and can dress up any outfit for that WOW factor — people will be eyeing your earlobes, just trust me. Amazon Promising review: "I bought these as an alternative because I could never afford VCA. I love the vibrant green and plan on buying all the other colors available. Use caution when closing the clasp because you can easily misalign it. Would recommend." — SpoyldBrat1982 Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in four colors and various styles). 6. Lawless's "Forget The Filler," an overnight lip treatment with shea butter, hyaluronic acid, and a stimulating peptide complex formula to deeply hydrate and plump your pout. Your lips will get the nourishment they deserve as you catch up on the shut-eye you've been dreaming of ALL DAY. Amazon, Promising review: "Really makes a difference. First overnight treatment I've used where my lips genuinely feel hydrated and plumper in the morning. I'm pleasantly surprised — I bought this on a whim after a rec from The Strategist and almost canceled the order. Now I use it every night!" — Hilary Get it from Amazon for $22 (available in four flavors/shades). 7. A chip-resistant OPI RapiDry Quick Dry nail polish designed to set (without smudging!) in just 60 seconds. So if you need to click "next episode" while doing your self-care, you can do so without ruining your nails in the process. While it only lasts up to five days, the fast dry time makes an at-home mani less of a hassle *and* way cheaper 'cause the salon ain't cheap. Amazon Promising review: "I love how quickly this nail polish dries! It saves me from accidentally ruining my nails before they set, which is a game-changer. Plus, it gives me just enough time to paint my nails without interruptions from the kids. The opaque finish looks beautiful, and the formula is smooth and easy to apply. Definitely a must-have for busy moms or anyone who needs a quick, flawless manicure!" – Susan J Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in nine shades). 8. Or, a set of Glamnetic's press-on nails if you're feeling a little lazy 'cause these only take minutes to apply. These nails can be reshaped and reused, and they come in so many chic styles that choosing just one will be IMPOSSIBLE. Reviewers say they last a long time, too — one reviewer who's a mom said they lasted two full weeks through the holidays without falling off or budging! Glamnetic is a small business that specializes in uniquely-designed, reusable press-on nails. Promising review:"I almost never write reviews about products, but I was so happy with these nails I had to write one. I decided to try these press-on nails on a limb — I've never bought or used press-on nails before, and this was my first time — and I was so extremely surprised by the quality, the durability, and most of all, how absolutely gorgeous they look. I've never really liked my hands (I bite my nails a lot because of anxiety) but these nails had me marveling at them all day for the past week! I t's been 10 days since I put them on and lived life as normal — work, cleaning, washing dishes, even doing some crafts — and not one came off. The only reason I can't test them past these 10 days is because I'm forced to take them off for work reasons that I really need my hands for. But otherwise, I think they could've easily lasted at least five more days — even with the soaking in warm water method, I was struggling to peel them off! So the least I can say is that I'm extremely happy with these nails, and I just bought four more packs — red, black, dark blue, and the French tip ones. Highly recommend! Ps. I've never had my natural nails this long either, so I spent all week tapping things with them like I was an ASMR youtube channel, lol." — Tamara Augus Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in 45 styles). 9. A cute, lightweight cookware set with detachable handles so you can store your pots and pans more easily. These have a non-stick design, so cleaning is a breeze — say goodbye to hunching over the kitchen and scrubbing for (what feels like) dayssss. Each set includes an 8-inch and 10-inch frying pan, a 10-inch deep frying pan, a 7-inch and 8-inch saucepan, two glass lids, two removable handles, and four pot protectors. Promising review: "I found out these detachable pots and pans on a YouTube video. They are such a space saver for small kitchens. They can stack on top of each other, which only takes up a small corner of the cabinet. The spot protectors are so useful and neat that you won't scratch the pots. They are very easy to clean. Great quality that I've recommended to several friends." — Yuli Aoki Get it from Amazon for $59.99. 10. A Swiftie-themed needlepoint pillow you can throw in your lap as you pull up your after-work show for the night. Calling all Midnights and Reputation stans... I have the pillow JUST for you!! Furbish is a woman-founded business established in 2009 that specializes in eclectic, colorful "dopamine decor." Promising review: "The pillow is great — looks just like it came from Furbish Studio itself! Seems to be great quality. Glad I found it on here! Basically the same price but came more quickly. Recommended, especially if you relate a little too much to Anti-Hero." — Chicagrl8 Get it from Amazon for $88 (available in two styles). 11.

I've had these for two years, and they still feel the same as when I got them. The color is identical to the picture on your screen, and they feel like heaven. The price can't be beat." — The Unordinary Mom Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (available in women's sizes 4–15 and men's sizes 3–16 and 16 colors). 12. A tub of Aloderma gel formulated with 96% aloe vera, making it super hydrating and soothing for dry, irritated, or sunburnt skin. Reviewers say it's helped heal their burns, clear up their acne, and immediately soothe psoriasis flare-ups. Promising review:"My skin feels like the bottom of a newborn. This is so great. The natural ingredients are the best and it leaves my skin with a natural glow and softness that I have never felt before. I have aging skin and it is just a great product. I use it on my face and my hair on wash days. I am going to order three more just so I don't run out." — Divine Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in three- and six-packs). 13. A "Deeptalk" journal with three years' worth of daily prompts so you can see your growth down the line. Prompts vary from big picture ("What changes do you hope to see in the next 365 days?") to day-to-day reflections ("What challenges have you tackled today?"). They're meant to be quick and easy, too, so you can start your day with a little reflection before you jump into your chaotic day. Promising review: "I'm a stay at home mom, and I've found myself in a slump lately not knowing much about me anymore. I REALLY love this book. Since the moment I've opened it, I've loved every thing about it. It has helped me actually sit down at night, and think (with the questions) when it comes to my life, and where I am in life right now. I love answering the questions, and being able to check off my mood for the day. I can't wait to see how much my life/mindset changes during the year. I also love that it's a hard cover book so I don't have to worry about it bending up in my purse." — Hope M. Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two colors). 14. Murdle, Volume 1, a murder mystery puzzle book that blends logic, deduction, and classic whodunit storytelling into one thrilling experience. Players must solve the cases by analyzing clues, completing puzzles, and piecing together evidence. Reviewers say they couldn't put it down! Check out a TikTok of Murdle in action. The best part?? Once you finish "Murdling," you can use your sleuthing skills on Volume 2, Volume 3, and a whole BUNCH of other themed Murdle books! Promising review: "The puzzles are a lot of fun, but the characters, storylines and other details take the Murdle experience to another level. I have no idea how the author came up with all of this creativeness! You can Murdle solo or with friends. I look forward to future volumes but this one will keep me busy for awhile!" — Liz Gately Get it from Amazon for $10.25. 15. A mini Bob Ross paint-by-numbers kit if you want an easy craft 'cause who wants to go through all the hassle of buying expensive paints and canvases? This comes with two landscapes and a portrait of Bob to unleash your inner artist without that much effort. Amazon, The kit comes with three different numbered canvas designs, seven paint pots, a mini brush, and an easel. Promising review: "I have to admit I was skeptical because of the price and size. However, I got these for my husband for his birthday (he loves Bob Ross) and what a find!! We had so much fun mixing colors and painting. Would definitely recommend. The fact that they are small makes them even more special. I wish there were more to paint!" — slb m Get it from Amazon for $6.80. 16. Or, Pocket World if you'd rather color in the cutest little worlds with markers, crayons, or colored pencils — they are just a tad less messy.

Coco Wyo has a *ton* of other cozy stress relief coloring books with different themes in their Amazon storefront! You can also pick up a cult-fave colored pencil set on Amazon! Promising review:"One of my favorites ever!!! The idea is perfect, and the pages are all unique and fun to color, with no repetition, and the details aren't too tiny. Great for anxiety if you're doing coloring for mental health. (I hate the pages that are just tiny patterns repeated endlessly. Makes my anxiety worse.)" — Ezra Johnson Get it from Amazon for $7.99. 17. Elizabeth Mott's Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask 'cause what's more soothing (and fun) than a face mask that transforms into a bubbly foam? Answer: nothing. It deeply cleanses and gently exfoliates your skin to reveal a glowier, brighter complexion you simply cannot resist. Promising review: "I absolutely love this stuff. I was skeptical at first, but after my first use, I fell in love. It goes on smoothly and doesn't drip off, which is nice. Once it was time to rinse off, i t was amazing seeing all the stuff it sucked out of my pores (gross, but a good gross). Not only does this stuff work, but it's also fun to watch and see your face turn into a Smurf, lol. I have cystic acne, which in itself is hard to manage, but this stuff made it that much more manageable. The face was left feeling clean, refreshed, and soft. LOVE LOVE this product. Highly highly recommend." — HarleyMama Get it from Amazon for $18.99. 18. Anua 77 Soothing Toner infused with heartleaf extract that's known for calming, soothing, and hydrating skin — which is exactly what you need after a day of nonstop grinding.

Coop Sleep Goods is a small business specializing in pillows, pillowcases, and sleep products. Promising review:"I hardly ever write reviews, but I have to for this. I saw this pillow on TikTok, and it got me curious, so I immediately came to Amazon. OMG, it's such a game-changer. I'm a side sleeper, and this pillow is heaven. It's some of the most comfortable sleep I have had in ages. I love it so much I bought a second one and have my eye on the body pillow. Obsessed! You need this in your bedroom." — MT Get it from Amazon for $79+ (available in two sizes and three shapes). 20.

Check out the rest of the Needoh fidget toy options on their Amazon storefront! 21. A pair of lightweight legging-style joggers, the ultimate post-work clothing 'cause these are WAY more comfortable than stiff slacks. You may just think you're in Lululemon's Align joggers 'cause reviewers say they feel and look the same — but they note these are a *tad* thicker. Getting into bed for your scrolling time is about to hit different in these. Promising review: "These are literally the best leggings/joggers I have ever owned, and I plan to eventually buy every single color. I originally saw these on TikTok and heard they were like the Lululemon ones but cheaper. I've never owned Lululemon leggings, but if they feel anything like these, then I have clearly been missing out. These are soft and absolutely perfect. I love the pockets and jogger style and that they fit like leggings and can be worn to the gym or dressed up with a cute outfit. I need to buy every color of these before they're gone!" — Courtney 22. Eos' Shea Butter Vanilla Cashmere body lotion designed to deliver lightweight and long-lasting moisture (24 hours to be ~exact~) without that horrible greasy feeling other moisturizers can leave behind. Your skin will not only feel super smooth, but reviewers say this smells like "heaven on Earth." 🌎 Promising review: "Heaven sent for your skin; heavenly scent to enjoy. This feels absolutely amazing going on. Gets absorbed quickly, for a lotion rich with oil. Doesn't leave a greasy feeling, as long as you give it a minute or two to fully absorb. The scent is, for me anyway, like aromatherapy. It smells like an iced sugar cookie, and is a great base layer for fragrance. Very relaxing." — Dragonheart Jo Get it from Amazon for $8.98 (available in many scents and in multipacks). 23. A dishwasher-safe veggie chopper 'cause the last thing you want to do is meal prep your dinner when you're kinda tired — it's too much chopping!! If your recipe calls for a diced onion, *this* can do it in seconds without you crying. And if that didn't sell you, the built-in storage container will hold everything until it's time to add your veggies. Promising review:"Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. This requires very little effort to cut through the food, and it has a generous container." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $29.97+ (available in five sizes and four colors). 24. A set of oh-so-cooling Mellanni sheets for a super comfortable night's rest — even if you overheat and sweat while sleeping! Reviewers love that they're affordable, wrinkle-resistant, and don't pill (aka easy to care for!). One even said, "They are magic to sleep on." Promising review: "My favorite sheets have to be Cozy Earth. But they are way too pricey for a guest bed. These sheets are just as good without the huge price tag. Side by side comparison to these vs expensive brands like Cozy Earth or Peacock Alley — these sheets are thinner and deeper, which actually fit better on our deep mattress with a 3-inch topper, these sheets are just as cool feeling as the higher-end ones when you get in bed. They wash well. Actually better than [the] Peacock Alley brand. They hardly wrinkle. And even after months of use, they are still in great shape. They haven't started to peel yet or fray. No loose threads or tears. Great sheets!" — Susan Promising review: "I read from other reviews these sheets were soft so I wasn't too surprised when I received them and man are they soft and so comfortable. We have Egyptian cotton sheets that were expensive and I promise we have changed them back out for the comfort of these sheets. The cotton sheets were cold and these were just right. The other thing is my husband has thin skin that any nick he will bleed. Well, he has bled on these white sheets and when we washed them (in cold water as instructed) the blood always comes out and never stains. I can't say enough great things about them except to say all three of my adult kids are receiving a set as part of their Christmas!" — Sheree Chrestman Get it from Amazon for $34.97+ for a set of queen sheets (available in sizes twin–California king, sets with deep pockets for taller mattresses, and in 45 colors/patterns) 25. And silky smooth satin pillowcases reviewers say stay cold throughout the *entire* night — which is just what you want after a longgg day. They can help create less friction agsint your hair, reduce breakage, and control frizz, making them great for those of you who take your haircare EXTRA seriously. Amazon BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer says: "This is my go-to satin pillowcase. I have two Slip pillowcases, and several of these, and actually the Bedsure ones wash up much nicer and retain an incredibly silky smooth feel after dozens of trips through the laundry. They're the only ones I'll buy going forward." Promising review:"My hair has never been better! I got this because of TikTok, and it has done wonders for my hair. My hair isn't frizzy or dull looking when I get up in the morning." — Aaron Key Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ for a set of two (available in five sizes, 35 colors, and in sets of four or individually). 26. A pack of Biodance's Bio-Collagen Real Deep masks for glowier, more hydrated skin by the time you wake up. Just apply it before bed, let it work its magic overnight, and peel it off once it turns transparent. It can help deeply moisturize, minimize the appearance of pores, and leave your skin looking radiant! Promising review: "Caught wind of this on TikTok and decided to give it a whirl. Honestly, it's pretty solid! It really makes my skin look tight and shiny, like I just came out of a professional facial. It's an overnight mask, so yeah, it does have to stay on for a while, which is a bit of a hassle, but the payoff? Totally worth it. My skin feels more elastic, and the pores look minimized, too. If you don't mind the long wear time, this mask could be a game changer for your skincare routine!" — Nala Get it from Amazon for $19+ for a four-pack (available in three styles and as a 16-pack). 27. A heart-shaped Dutch oven so you can whip up your evening meal in something that makes your heart skip a beat (it's that cute). It's a saute pan, braiser, roaster, slow cooker, and bread pan all wrapped up into one pinkalicious pot, making it perfect for anyone who wants to Barbie-ify their kitchen. Fun fact: it's from Paris Hilton's home collection (now that's hot...). This enameled cast iron pan is oven-safe to 500 degrees. Hand washing is recommended to keep it in good condition! Promising review: "I recently purchased the Paris Hilton Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven in the heart shape, and it has quickly become my favorite kitchen piece! The 2-quart size is perfect for small meals and side dishes, and the pink color adds a lovely touch to my kitchen. The dual handles make it easy to move, and it works on all stovetops, which is super convenient. It's also oven-safe up to 500 degrees, so it's great for a variety of recipes. The enameled cast iron ensures even cooking and retains heat beautifully. This pot cleans up well, and I have not had an issue with chipping. If you're looking for a functional and adorable Dutch oven, this one is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!" — Jamie Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two sizes) 28.

I have gifted these to many friends and now they all have fallen in love with them. You won't regret this purchase!" — KhiKhi Get it from Amazon for $24.99 for a set of 15 (also available in a variety pack). 30.

Promising review:"This is really so easy to use!! If you plan ahead, you can have ice cream daily, even a different flavor daily!! Easy enough to find different recipes, and you can put in add-ins like chips, Reese's peanut butter cups, fruit, etc. The plus side — you KNOW what's in it!!" — DawnH Get it from Amazon for $185. 32.

I work a 12-hour night shift as a nurse, and this technology has helped me get through the night easily👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $69.99+ (get this price by clipping the $20 off coupon on the product page; available in three colors). 34.

I'm usually TikTok-ing while in bed, and have my phone on a stand. Not having to raise my hand to scroll up or down is amazing!" — Phons S Promising review: "I use this just to scroll while reading on my iPad. It allows me to curl up in the blankets while I have my iPad in a holder. (It may be lazy, but I'm obsessed all the same.) Super comfortable to hold/wear around your finger. Was easy to connect with my iPad and definitely worth the money in my opinion." — Mandi Arnold Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three colors). 35. A lavender-scented avocado plushie you can snuggle with on the couch after a long day. It's filled with rice, so you can either microwave it or freeze it, depending on what you want.
